Art at The Towner

Cavendish School are thrilled to be be represented at the Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne, as part of the 2012 School Project and the Annual Schools ART Exhibition. Students created work based on their thoughts and feelings of the local area, focusing on journeys and maps, with the overarching theme of this years project being local and cultural pride. Inspiration for the student’s work came from works from the Towner collection, depicting urban countryside and seaside scenes. The exhibition is open to the public 12 May -10 June 2012 with a private viewing from 3.30-6pm on Friday 11th May for pupils, teachers and parents. We hope to see you there.
